It is remarkable how often sheep appear in the Bible and how often Jesus, descendant of David, appears to shepherd us. Thank you God, we badly need shepherding.

Ezekiel 34:22-24

I will rescue my flock; they shall no longer be a prey. And I will judge between sheep and sheep.
And I will set up over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he shall feed them: he shall feed them and be their shepherd.
And I, the Lord, will be their God, and my servant David shall be prince among them. I am the Lord; I have spoken.
